ABOUT:
The history of Wellington City, New Zealand.
Some, including Irvine-Smith herself, called it a social history. But the 325-page illustrated volume was much more than that – because, as she told a Dominion reporter in 1948, just before publication, "I love Wellington.". Her heart was deeply invested in this piece of historical pioneering, in which she explored how, why and when the streets of Wellington were created, formed and named.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome images, maps on end papers.
Includes separate newspaper cutting.
